Create a child skill variant of the Email reply recommendation skill to generate AI-powered email replies tailored to a specific case subtype or extended table.

Confirm the following prerequisites are met before you begin:

* The base Email reply recommendation skill must already be activated.

## About this task

When you copy the Email reply recommendation skill in AI Admin Hub, a child skill is created that inherits the parent skill's configuration. Open the copied skill in AI Skill Kit to select the target child table. Configure the additional input fields that are injected into the AI prompt for that table. Once configured, the platform automatically uses the child skill
when an agent triggers Email Reply Recommendation on a case record that belongs to the extended table.
